Financial Aid

ICS's financial aid program is used to
supplement a Junior Member's other financial resources. Financial aid
awards are meant to be supplemented by other means such as loans and
other funds, or, for a Canadian student, part-time employment.

Full-time
Junior Members who wish to apply for financial aid should complete and
submit a financial aid application when they submit their admission
application (Part-time and Non-Degree Junior Members are not eligible
for financial aid). An admission application must be fully completed
before eligibility for aid is assessed.

ICS Financial Aid Application Deadline: February 1 (Late submissions will not be considered)

ICS offers a number of scholarships. Junior Members are not
required to apply for scholarships separately. Rather, the financial aid
application and the admissions application are used to assess how
scholarships will be distributed.

ICS scholarships include:

Bernard Zylstra Scholarship

Peter J. Steen Memorial Scholarship

Laura Dale Award

Wilma Cumming Memorial Scholarship

African Student Scholarship

Marinus Koole Memorial Scholarship

GDL Scholarship

Harry and Hilda Fernhout Ph.D. Award

Jean Olthuis Memorial Scholarship

Robert Lee Carvill Memorial Award

Horticultural Services Scholarship

George Vandervelde Memorial Scholarship

In
addition, the Dean's Award and Student Life Award are granted at the
end of the academic year based on students' achievement and
participation during the year.

PROVINCIAL & FEDERAL FINANCIAL AID

Students enrolled in the MA or PhD programs may be eligible, if qualified, for loans, grants, or awards granted under the Ontario Student Assistance Program (OSAP).

ICS does not participate in the US Federal Student Aid Program. However, the ICS is authorized to sign payment deferment
documentation for existing US student loans.
